many of the boarding houses.
-- One dollar notes on the Mont—
gomery County Bank altered to twen
ties, and well executed spurious twen
ty—five cent notes—new issue—are
afloat. Look but for them, as they
:aro likely to deceive the cautious.
We see it stated in our exchange r s
that 'within the past eight months up—
Wards of four hundred newspapers
have "died," in consequence of the
exorbitant price of printing paper.
The Johnstown Tribune learns
that Provost Marshal Lloyd has re—
ceived orders from the War Depart
ment directing that the namee of all
those who paid commutation during
the year 1864, shall be put in the
wheel in the approaching draft.
—A list of the more important and
most interesting and instructive books
for sale at Lewis' Book Store can be
found by our readers on the first col
umn of the fourth t 'go. Examine it,
as there may be some that will suit
yon.
A man ono day last week named
Casper, who endeavored to separate
some of the eanino specie that were
tearing each other's throats, had a
portion of his middle finger bit off for
his commiseration. Serious pay!
-We learn that John S. Miller has
sold the Exchange Hotel in this place
to A. P. Wilson, and will retire from
it on the Ist of April next. The incom
ing occupant, we are informed, is a
gentleman from Fulton counts-.
—According 'to previous notice we
have inserted in the outside of to day's
issue the full report of the County
Superintendent, relative to the num—
ber and condition of the public schools
of this county. Directors, teachers
and parents will be bunefitted by pe—

—A man supposed to be about 35
years of age, was killed by the fast
line at Petersburg, on Thursday night
last. Ho was walking on the railroad
and was an entire stranger. He had
an old sear across the forehead as if

The quota of Cambria county,
under the apportionment is 405; Johns
town borough, 103; Ebensburg, 76;
Cenomough, 13. To clear the eitimens
of Johnstown the sum of 6100 has
to be contributed by every ono liable
to draft; a sum five times as large as
that contributed by the people of this
borough:
A correction.—We stated in a for—
mer number that - Capt. T. Benton
Read had been appointed Inspector
General of the 205th Regiment, having
the information through a letter from
a,member of his company to his friends.
We arc now informed that the state—
ment was incorrect and should have
been made to read that the Captain
was appointed acting Brigade Inspec
tor of the 2d Brig. 3d Div. 9th Corp.
Washington's Birthday.—Wednes
day next, the 22nd of February, it
will be remembered, is George Vi'ash
ington's birthday. The people should
celebrate the day in a becoming
manner, and make it ono of rejoicing,
because on the eve of the month in
which he was born, after a lapse of
one hundred and thirty-three years
the evils of slavery were abolished by
his children. Truly, this month is a
remarkable one.
—The Good Templar Society, of
this place, has been fully organized

OW the many Wim have professed an

and who have urged their friends to
flbetain .frorn imbibing its contents
will tali() advantage o the' present
opportunity, and show the example.
Practice tghpt you preach, and the
effort will be infinitely greater than if
you merely preach and do not prac—

!'How pleasant it is to rido in
,sleighs," as the follow said who - was
dumped out of Lis sleigh while crossing
a "drift." Truly, falling out of a sleigh
on a cold afternoon, and being left to
the mercy of the piercing winds is not
very pleasant. At least we can% sec it.
Whoever has even experienced sleigh.
ing 79 reads well drifted, and not
well broken, will bear us out in the
desertion that they have found that to

Who are Exempt from tho Draft
COMMISSIONERS ' OFFICE, 1
Huntingdon County. f
MESSRS. EDITORS :—For the infor
mation of the assessors of our county,
and of the people generally, please in
sert in your paper the following inter
rogatories propounded by mo to the
Inspector General and the accompany
ing answers :
11. W. Ahura, Clerk of Corn.
1. Is a person exempt who has a sub
stitute in the army ?
2. Is a person exempt who has paid
his $3OO commutation money?
8. Is a person exempt who has serv
ed his three years or nine months in
the U. S. service ?
4. Is a person exempt who served
his seven years in a regular uniform
ed company ?
5. Is a person exempt who has been
exempted by the Physician of the En
roling Board under the service of the
U. S?
Answered—Questions 1,2, 8, 4 and
5, are answered in the negative. The
citizen owes allegiance and as a conse
quence service to both State and Na
tional Government hnd exemption
from service under the act of Congress
for enroling and calling out the Na
tional forces does not relieve a party
from the service ho owes the State un
der its military laws. It is a superad:
dad obligation.
The certificate of exemption for
mental or physical diettbilitygiven by
the physician of the Enroling Board
of the U. S., should not be received as
evidence of disability, or disqualifica
tion for State service. Each board
must make its own exemptions, deter
mining from all the circumstances of
each particular case whether the par
ty is a proper subject for exemption.
The following classes are subject to
enrolment under the act of May 4th
and August 22d, 1862, but are exempt
fromtbepaymentormilitaryfines : All
members of organized uniformed com•
panies that comply with , the
laws of the State. All persons who have
performed service for seven consecu
tive years in a uniformed -company
under the laws of this State. And all
persons who have served three years
in active service in a volunteer corn
puny from this State.
These" classes arc not subject to that
fine, but should ho enrolod and are li
able to military duty under the laws
of this State, in time of war, insurrec
tion, or invasion.

Removal and Appointment
J. Sewell Stewart, Esq , of thisplace,
has been appointed United States As
sessor of Internal Revenue for this
district, in room of John Dean, Esq.,
of Hollidaysburg, removed.
No reasonable cause for complaint
for this change can be entertained by
our neighbors in Blair county. The
gentleman appointed is ono duly quell
Emil to perform the duties of his new
position to the satisfaction of all; and
added to this they have the well-es
tablished fact, to further console them,
that Huntingdon is a better and more
central locality than Hollidaysburg.
The Shirleysburg Herald, which
represents the ideas of the people of
the lower end of this county, in treat
ing upon the subject has the follow
ing paragraph:
"Hollidaysburg in locality was de
cidedly uncentral and one-sided—in
convenient for access by Railroad,
being approachable only by a Branch
Railroad, whereas Huntingdon, where
the office will be removed to, is loca
ted on the main line of the Pennsyl.
vania Railroad, nearly central in the
District, and where all the passer.
ger trains stop, making the change in
several respects highly advantageous
to the most of the taxables in the Dis
trict. We congratulate Mr Stewart
on his appointment."
Now that the office will most assur•
odly be removed, the inconvenience of
access will be remedied by .tho cen
tral and convenient posilioa of Hun
tingdon.
Go and hear Bishop Simpson
It is announced that this distinguish
ed and convincing orator will deliver
a sermon in the lilethodist Church of
this place on Friday evening next.
Some of our citizens who have heard
the Reverend gentleman, state that
they never heard a speaker tq equal
him. The object of the mooting is to
raise funds sufficient to livid:lto the
debt contracted Upon thO Church.
We predict a full hotnie, plenty or
money to g ratify the members in
their Christian desire to" OWQ uo twin
anything." .
yalcutlncs.j
As tho period for giving and receiv
tug 7alentincs has arrived, the custom
is indulged in with us much fervor as
heretofore, and the "comics" and "son
timentals" are floating through the
post office to. many surprised ones.
The plane to put•chase Valentines is. at
Lewis' Book Store, where. they, gan,t!e

quarters at Hollidaysburg on Wednes—
day morning last,and after the neeessa—
ryarrangements had been completed in
respect to examination and accredit
ing, the boys departed from thence to
Carlisle, where they will receive a por
tion of the bounty of the districts to
which they credited theinselves, and
on being sent to the front they will ro•
coive the remainder. We hope to hear
from the boys wherever they may go.
A Deep Snow
A fall of snow which commenced
early on Tuesdny morning last,
continued untill Wednesday morning,
and reached a depth of about eighteen
inches. The roads were rendered in
someplaces impassable by the wind of
the days following causing drifts.
The sleighing is now better than it
was heretofore, and sleighing parties
are equally as numerous.
The trains on the railroads were
detained considerably by the depth of
the snow. Those on the Pennsylva
nia road not reaching this point for
several hours after schedule time, and
the passenger train on Broad Top not
arriving until six o'clock on Wednes
.
day morning.
Mutilated Currency.
In the last issue of the United States
Mail; (February number,) the follow
ing question, iu reference to the duty
of postmasters, is answered :
Is there any law requiring postrnas.
tars to redeem mutilated fractional
currency ? If so, what aro the in.
struetions in regard to it?
Ans.—There is no law requiring
postmasters to redeem mutilated cur
rency. All persons presenting" it to
Post offices, should be instructed that
the Treasurer of the United States at
Washington, will redeem it [on the
conditions set forth in a circular issu
ed by the Treasury Department,] when
sent to him in sums of not less than
three dollars.
Be Careful of Your Lamp■
Since the introduction of petroleum,
kerosene lamps have been universal
ly used by families, and any informa
tion regarding their use may be con
sidered a public benefit. Many per
sons, when going to bed, or when lea
ving the room for a short sime, arc in
the habit of turning the wick down
low in order to save a trifle of the con
gumption of oil. The consequence is,
-that- tuu...uir,..yLth a .,-, 9 m soon becomes l i
vitiated ty the unconsunia - Cill — Virpors;
by the gas produced by combustion,
and also by the minute particles of
smoke and soot which are thrown off.
Air thus poisoned is deadly in its ef
fects, and the wonder is that more
persons are not immediately and
fatally injured by breathing it. Irri
tation and inflammation of the throat
and lungs, headache, dizziness and
nausea are among its effects.
Southern Pennsylvania Rail Road.
As the engineers have completed
the survey and location of this new
road from Connellsvillo to Bedford,
and paused in their operations, a ru
mor has got afloat that the company
does not intend to build any more
than that portion of the work. It is
true that the company intend to build,
finish, and put this part of the line in
operation bofore attempting any other.
But it is not true the rest of the work
is to be abandoned. Tho Huntingdon
and Broad Top Railroad extends to
Bedford, at which placo it will. meet
this new road and connect with it.—
From Bedford to Count)llsville is a di
vision of road, which cannot 'be built
without some heavy tunnel-work
through tho mountains, and whet , fin
ished it is obviously the best policy to
put the road in operation by means of
the Broad Top connection. This would
at once make a through route from
Philadelphia via Harrisburg, Hunting.

ty for bringing into market the valu
able mineral lands of the southern
tier of counties. It would furnish al
so an avenue to market for the oil of
Dunkard creek region, besides increas
ing -onormonsly the business of the
railroad from Huntingdon to Bedford.
Firo in Shade Gap
The Shirleysburg Herald states that
the • dwelling-house occupied by W.
INlcKnight Williamson, in Shade Gap,
was totally consumed by fire on Wed
nesday night, 25th ult. It isnot known
how the fire originated. Arr. William

The thermometer stood twelve degrees

Mn. Enurott :—Permit me to say to
the people of Carbon county, through
your columns, that afore is room in
my Regiment for recruits. In view
of the approaching draft I should be
happy to receive a:portion" of my be
loved country's quotii
Mine is a good Regiment, indeed, I
never saw a better collection of mon
in the army. Men in enlisting can do
so by simply enlisting for the Rcgi
mont,—and after reaching here will be
assigned to a company.
I trust I need urge no argument to
the patriotic men of Carbon to assist
in filling up the ranks, at .this time,
when great Union victories like the
waves of the ocean are rushing upon
us. The end is appmaching—God be
praised—to him belongs all the glory.
Let all now arround the blood.etain.

FRIEND LEWIS addition to the
appeal from Col. Albright, allow mo
to say to the patriotic people of my
native county, (Huntingdon,) that wo
already bare ono company from

The 202 d Regiment., P. V., is the ad
miration of all who know anything
about the bravo officers and men com
posing it. Indeed, the officers, in gen
eral, are proverbial for their temper.
ance and morality. Col. Albright is
a praying man, and distinguished for
his piety and daring. No Regiment
can boast of a more efficient and gal
lant Colonel. The men all love him,
and feel proud of the excellent disci
pline which he has established among
them. I venture that no Regiment
now in the field, has more moral and
religious men in its ranlre than ours.--
In God is our trust—to Hint belongs
all the glory.

The Register of the Bth says :—The
Exchange Hotel in this place, kept by
Mr. Samuel Aults, took fire and burn
ed .to the ground on last Thursday
morning. The fire, it is supposed, or
iginated in the office of the Hotel,
about half past two '.clock in the
morning, and before 4...p:effort Could
be made to stop it, the fire had made
such headway that all efforts was use-.
less. The building and most of the
furnitut o in it, were in less than two
hours almost entirely consumed. The
most wonderful fact connected with
the disaster is that no lives were lost.
It being Court week; and the Board
of Enrolment being in session hear
ing parties preparatory to the next
draft, many strangers were in town
and as a consequence the Hotel was
full—every room and bed being occu
pied. But very-few escaped without
losing part of their clothing, some all
but the shirt on the back. Some leap
ed from the windoWs to the street, oth
ers managed to make their way through
the smoke and fire down stairs to the
door. Among those who lest we may
name Mr. John lsett, farmer of Sink-'
ing Valley, who lost all his clothing
and between three and four hundred
dollars in money. A lady was lying
sick in one of the rooms, but was car
ried out without injury. A gentleman
from Mifflin county jumped from the
second story to the street, and was
seriously injured. There was no in
surance whatever on the building or
furniture. Mr. Aults' loss cannot fall
short of $4,000. The Hotel being of
brick, a large amount of material
which would - ho valuable in rebuilding,
is uninjured by the fire.' Ho -has al
ready leased the old Diamond Hotel
for present use, and we are inform
ed will rebuild the Exchange!'

Wo discovered the above inquiry in
the Johnstown Tribune, and publiSh
the following statement relative to the
occasion of the inquiry:—An individual
calling himself by this name and sport
ing a profusion of jewelry came to
Johnstown iu th . e early part of October
last. He represented himself to be
engaged in the purchase of grain for
the Government. At a "party" given
at Whisky Spring, a short distance out
of town, Roland met. Miss. Louisa
Stremol, a daughter of Mr. Henry
Stremel, a shoemaker of the neighbor—
hood. The grain contractor professed
to fall in love with Louisa, and pre—
vailed upon her to marry him. The
ceremony was duly solemnized on the
30th of October. Roland remained
with his wife until the 17th of Novem—
ber, when he left her, Baying that
, he
was going to Tyrone to ship grain.
His wife has not since seen hini or
heard from him. It has been ascer—
tained that he went to Tyrone, but
not to buy grain. Where he went
from there is not known.
It is a clear case of fraud and deser—
tion. The deserted wife asks us ttigive
publicity to the facts, in the hope that
the. scoundrel may be arrested and
punished. Roland was probably not
his true name. He left with his wife
a few books and some shirts, - upon the
latter of which is marked the name
"E. A. Inrin." Roland is perhaps
thirty—five years old, about five feet
eight inches in
, bight, and has a re—
markably high forehead. He said that
he bad resided in Massilon,. Stark
